Chapter 25

I stared at the kitchen wall, my hand gripping my spoon lightly. I played with my cereal, drawing circles and infinity loops.

I inhaled lightly before dropping my head on the counter, I was tired and today hadn’t even began. My first class was around eight, I had an hour more before my first class.

“Good morning roomie.” Charlotte spoke as she appeared in the kitchen, she sounded so hyper, how she managed I don’t know.

I raised my head from the counter, my hands on the sides of my head supporting it. “Why are you so, happy and up so early?” I questioned her, this was so unlike Charlotte, mostly her hyper mood for school.

She rolled her eyes as she walked over to the cabinet grabbing the jar of peanut butter, closing the cabinet she turned and faced me.

“I’m just enthusiastic to learn.” she spoke while opening the jar tracing her index finger on the side of the jar, after scooping enough peanut butter the finger was in her mouth. Her eyes rolled back in satisfaction while I stared at her disgusted.

I shook my head trying to shake the images away, I straighten my back before clearing my throat to speak. “The same college I go to? Are you the same Charlotte?” she began walking to were I sat, when she was close enough she sat down beside me. Pulling her index finger out of her mouth, she spoke.

“Why do you always want to be dramatic fool, and yes the same college, why? Can’t I like school. Am I too...” her words broke off at the end, her eyes were on me her lips were curled into a creepy grin.

The silence grew more so did her grin, I attempted to speak but the moment my mouth opened I felt a warm wet thing in my mouth, a hint of peanut butter was there.

My eyes grew in surprise as I saw Charlotte’s finger into my mouth, the same finger she had been licking, all peanutty and covered in her saliva. I spat out her finger, grabbing the nearest drink in front of me, I got a hold of my bowl then drunk from it.

Charlotte kept laughing through out the whole thing as I finished the whole milk. I placed the bowl down narrowing my eyes at Charlotte, this had reached another step of annoyance, fingering my mouth was beyond limit.

She wiped away her fake tears as her laughter started dying down, her body straighten. “Consider it payback, for yesterday and I hope that got rid of your s****l frustration.”

My eye twitched in annoyance, yesterday was harmless fun I didn’t touch her, “You’re just as sexually frustrated as me, maybe even worse.” my voice was firm and annoyance made it whole.

She tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear, then leaned back on the chair. “Touché.” my face grew into a smile, our eyes locked for a second then I got up, it was time to prepare.

I quickly got dressed in a black trouser with a long sleeved shirt, I threw my bag pack over my shoulder. When I was in the kitchen, Charlotte was still seated where I had left. “I’ll be going now, see you later.” she waved me bye before I walked out.

The cool air hit my skin the moment my feet stepped on the sidewalk, I walk the sidewalk in the direction of the campus. It was only a few minutes away and I didn’t feel like driving today.

After a few minutes I arrived on school campus, the brick building stood there with all it’s glory. I turned my gaze from the main building to the library, A few students were in sight, friends, couples or just flings. I walked across the yard to the building that I had most of my classes, the bricked smaller building came into sight passing some faces I knew I greeted them.

The halls where empty when I walked through them to my first class of the day, due to my anticipation get over with the day already I placed both my arms on the straps of my bag pack pulling it closer to my body.

When I turned to the left on the corner of the hallway, a figure started approaching me. As it got closer I recognized her, she walked with her head held high, her perfect body was covered with a simple dress but she looked like a million dollars, she came to a stop infront of me.

She threw her arm over my shoulder pulling our bodies closer, “Hey stranger, it’s been a while. For a moment I thought you were ignoring me.” her perfume filled my nostrils, it was a lovely scent. In attempt to give me a peck I stood on my tip toes growing even taller than her.

“Kira, don’t you dare.” I warned her stepping out of her hold.

She crossed her arm Infront of her body, glaring at me.

“Well it was just a friendly peck, I wasn’t going to do anything.” she snapped back her voice cold and hurt. I rolled my eyes stepping closer to her, our faces only inches apart.

“Like the last peck you gave me? The one we ended up sleeping together, that friendly peck?” my eyes piercing hers, I stepped back avoiding any another contact.

“Well you enjoyed it, didn’t you. I know I did.” she walked towards me pulling her hand on my shoulder, her other free hand playing with the tip of my shirt.

I shrugged her hand off taking another step away, “Neither of those times was I sobber you know that, you’re just a friend Kira.” turned deciding on ending the conversation but when I was some miles away from her and her charming tongue she shouted, her words echoing in the almost empty walls, “With benefits, really great ones.” I ignored her comment and hurried to my class.

I walked to the seat near the window, the place I usually enjoyed, the views where remarkable and a great distraction.

A couple of minutes later our lecture on Java programming began, Mr. James kept moving from slide to slide while my mind kept day dreaming, anything but this.
